Produktbeschreibung
This book is mainly a collection of stories and snippets from the author's time at BITS Pilani in the 1980s. These stories are all about campus life and real and imaginary friendships, encounters, romances, relationships and experiences. They are largely fictional. The BITS Pilani campus is in the remote north corner of Rajasthan in India. Excepting for a few staff kids, all the students lived in hostels. The boy to girl ratio on campus was about 11:1 and this gender imbalance, along with the remoteness from a big town or city, played out in interesting ways in the campus social scene. This book attempts to capture this social scene. Part 2 of this book is based on fictional adventures of some of the author's batchmates after graduating from Pilani. This book will recreate memories for ex-students from the 70s through to the 90s and also give more recent students a reflection of campus life back then.

Autorenporträt
Terence Alvares is from batch of 1983, BITS Pilani; a premier educational institution in India. After a sheltered school life in small town Ajmer, he was thrust into a residential college campus; interacting, living, studying and socializing for the first time with students from different corners of India. During his four years in Pilani, he held a number of leadership roles in sports, students mess and Oasis, the BITS Cul-Fest. His career path has taken him across several cities in India, and he is now based in Melbourne. As with most other BITSians, Terence believes his Pilani days were some of the best years of his life. He stays connected with his batchmates and values the friendships he developed at Pilani.
